Hi Fellow Muggles! DavyGravy here. I'm not really sure how I got that tasty screen name. I like gravy - but enough to make it my nameless? Not really but oh well I'll stick with it. You can call me Dave. I'm a recently retired high school math teacher living in upstate New York. For a retirement job, why not construct crossword puzzles? Its not exactly a lucrative retirement job - but its a fun way to pass the time. I hope you enjoy my puzzles.
